Stop the presses—I’m on vacation and I got up EARLY to shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and guide you through my favorites. If it’s enough to get me up early on vacay, it’s kind of a big deal. Why am I so psyched about this sale? Because it’s the time to shop NEXT Fall’s item’s at a discount.

Today the sale opened today—8 days early—exclusively to Nordstrom cardholders (not a cardholder? Shop it starting 7/17)  and it was actually the reason I signed up for a card last year. The application process was super easy. Early access is key to shop the best items and sizes before the sell out. And then I totally loved my card after I got it because I get points that go towards coupons for $’s off of purchases. I don’t overspend and I pay it off at the end of every billing cycle, so it’s totally been practical for me.

My must-have Fall 2015 trends: Ponchos, booties, distressed denim, backpacks, faux fur, fringe, layering jewelry, novelty tee’s, backpacks, hats and boots.
